dh just changed my screen res (but I DIDN'T Want it changed, wah, wah!) but now text is ok but half a post takes up most of the page. I'm using IE. Other sites, i.e. Google were the same size as before in another window, so it is mn that's changed.

Dragon - did you see the Captain Black/ Clangers video?- I posted it just as you went off for your littl 'break', but I thought you'd like it.

noddyholder · 15/12/2006 20:52

am getting used to it now panic over for today

PanicPressiePants · 15/12/2006 20:54

Just logged on, and thought I was going mad!

No, don't like this AT ALL.

THE GRAY LINES AROUND THE BOXES ARE MUCH BETTER

THE BLACK LINES ARE CONFUSING

my head hurts

FrannyandZooey · 15/12/2006 21:34

Bloody hell this is ugly and horrid

I came to see what you were all doing but seriously this is giving me a huge headache

IT IS HORRIBLE

Bleugh

poinsettydog · 15/12/2006 21:39

It's hurting my head and my eyes.

Headings should be in larger font and bold. That's really basic stuff. Ican hardly pick out the thread headings any more.

Use font size and bold! For crying out loud.

DizzyBinterWonderland · 15/12/2006 21:43

i have got used to it now.

Santamander · 15/12/2006 21:46

This is not great
was there no consultation prior to the change?

Don't the MN guys and gals normally consult???

Headings are teeny
Things don't stand out that well
Don't like the black boxes

I have IE7 and firefox - it does actually lokk better in IE7 - maybe that's what it was designed for (tho' I was always taught to try out a website in as many browsers as possible)

PartridgeinaRustyBearTree · 15/12/2006 22:12

I was also taught to spell look properly

mollymay · 15/12/2006 22:22

I dont like it either

bctmum · 15/12/2006 22:23

The line around the blue posters name section is too noticable - the previous double thin edge line was easier on the eyes.

tamum · 16/12/2006 10:45

Hooray, we have our pale grey lines back- thanks MN Towers. I think we've just about resumed normal service now

pelvicfloorSNOWmore · 16/12/2006 20:29

Great just great
I stay away for a few days and come back to a site i dont recognise.
Dont like change.

CliffRichardSucksEggsinHell · 16/12/2006 20:32

It's much better than it was pelvic! Stick with it, you will get used to it. I can't tell the difference now tbh.

CouldEquallyHaveBeenAnAardvark · 16/12/2006 20:32

You think this is unrecognisable? You should've seen Friday morning!

LemonTart · 16/12/2006 20:40

don?t like the "holly" green type and font is too small and eye-hurty.
Give me my mumsnet back (in stroppy toddlery whiny voice emoticon!)
I am too tired and don?t have enough energy to spend time negotiating new layouts and naviagations. I like mumsnet the way it used to be because I didn?t have to think!!

BethleCAM · 19/12/2006 19:40

I hate it

poptot · 27/12/2006 22:44

It's horrible but as has been said will mean I spend less time here now

carriemumsnet · 28/12/2006 21:47
